I personally liked much more other courses of the specialization. There are no intermediate exercises in this one, and I find the instructor not as effective as the previous ones. All in all, it gives a good approximation of what it means to struggle with daily projects.

simply very time consuming and confusing assignments with no proper explanation about the topics.
This course was a massive jump from the previous ones. No explanatory diagrams, just narration of the contents of the Jupyter notebook.
Tasks were not interesting & material was not explained well
I would give Zero stars. This course has no links to the rest of the specialization, has no teaching, and the instructions are either inadequate or wrong. Don't waste your time or money on this last one.
The process for submitting should be fixed
The content is very very insteresting, however the way is presented is not the best. Much better the courses 1 to 4 in organization and metodology.
Very bad ending to an awesome specialization
This course ruins the entire Specification. Its incredibly hard to do the exercise, because the lecturer thinks its a good idea to not provide the needed information so that you "learn" by finding the things you expected to be taught online.
The course work is, and I quote, "a project with minimal scaffolding. Expect to use the the discussion forums to gain insights! It’s not cheating to ask others for opinions or perspectives". In other words, part of the learning target is to work through bad or incomplete documentation and to solve an exercise that is stated without providing the information you need to solve it. Unless someone else already went through the moves, the lecturer fully expects you to fail by yourself.
If I wanted to feel the pain of learning without help or instructions, I would have just worked with the online manuals ... which is what this exercise openly tells you they want you to do. Its a shame for the other 4 courses, which are well done and have passionate lecturers.
What a waste of my time.
very good learning using this projects
